2008 Melbourne Summer MTBO Series
Event #6 Panton Hills, 23 February 2008

A smaller than usual, but very select group of riders, made it to
Panton Hill on Saturday to enjoy the newly updated colour map that
Peta Whitford had created. A pity not more managed to make it as
apart from having the new map, it included several good sections of
single track that linked up well with other roads. Seems that local
riders have been busy, and the tracks were quite a bit of fun riding,
especially on the downward runs.
The start/assembly area was again at the pony club which must be at
one of the highest spots in the area and the majority of the field
(over 2/3rds) were late getting back up there to finish. Something
about miss-judging the time required!

A plea from the organiser: ..
.riders need to complete cards CLEARLY
and calculate their time taken.
It is the responsibility of the rider to ensure their control cards
are both legible and protected...suggest using "contact" or card
plastic sleeve (available from map board hire): in the Summer Series
use a bulldog style clip to attach card to bike.

Many thanks to Peta Whitford and to all of those who helped on the day.
